My favorite way to run Windows apps on Linux just got even better
"There are so many options for running Windows apps on Linux. One such option is the new kid on the block, Winboat. As I wrote in my article, This is my new favorite way to run Windows apps on my Linux PC - how it works, Winboat takes a different approach than the other tools, by running an instance of Windows, so the apps work natively."
"Also: I've used Linux for 30 years. Here are 5 reasons why I'll never switch to Windows or MacOS New features include: A custom install path Support for sharing your /home folder Save state, so when you open an app, it's where it was when you closed it Multi-monitor support Support for auto-start containers Disk space warning Improved general workflow noVNC is now included, so it's possible to access WinBoat from a web browser Experimental Dynamic USB pass-through"
Winboat runs an instance of Windows on Linux so Windows applications run natively. The latest release adds a custom install path, optional sharing of the /home folder, save state, multi-monitor support, auto-start containers, disk space warnings, and workflow improvements. noVNC is included for browser access and experimental Dynamic USB pass-through is available. Sharing the /home folder can expose Linux files to Windows-specific malware and viruses, so users should enable it only if they understand the risks. Multi-monitor support remains somewhat buggy when monitors use different layouts. Winboat is available free for installation and use on Linux.
